Special Issue Description

Green nanotechnology has consistently incorporated biopolymers into its development. They have improved the process of making biocatalysts. The majority of these biopolymers play the dual roles of stabilizing and reducing agents in aqueous conditions, which allows them to be used in the environmentally friendly production of numerous noble metal NPs. The scope of biopolymers’ applications is increased by their biodegradability and biocompatibility. Effective catalysts can be created by combining biopolymers with additional biopolymers or other components, such as biodegradable synthetic polymers. Metal or metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) with surface decorations, such as Au, Ag, Cu, Pd, Pt, TiO2, and Fe3O4, are used to improve the catalytic activity of biopolymers, resulting in the creation of efficient catalysts for a variety of chemical processes.

Manuscript Submission information

Manuscripts should be submitted online via the manuscript Engine. Once you register on APID, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline.
All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the email address:[email protected] for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a Double-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for the submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page.
